Flight To Forever

I don't think I can visit this town again

Land this plane and not run to you

Those soft long arms that kept me sane

 

Stand here in the snow and rain

And Chicago winds that blow through

My coat and your hair by the train

 

Those nights of enjoying Chow Mein

Laughing at you and how loud you chew

I don't think I can visit this town again

 

Airing down 60 in your Cayenne

The things I told you were all too few

If only I knew your trust, there and then

 

I don't think I can visit this town again

Not unless you give me a chance to undo

My mistakes to show our love was not in vain

 

Shanghai to Illinois’s a long time on this plane

Drowning in these thoughts with no one to blame

This snow white skyline’s a forgiving view

But I don't think I can visit this town again
